I was going to have them retune my car. I was going to be there first Turbo lancer. but then i blew the motor.
They know there stuff for sure.
Iv talked to them a bunch and even had them look at my tune and tell tell me what there going to do.
Be prepared to be there around 3 to 4 hours. I already had a dyno tune on my car and i was planning on being there at least 2 to have them redo it.
There defently great guys that know there stuff

no he didn't offer me a job, that was clearly a jk, I thought....wow
anyways, I got it tuned today, took quite a while, but wow, they are real nice guys, and yes they know their stuff. Much more experienced than the other half *** shops I've been to. My car went in at I thought around 5-6 psi, but turns out it was 7-7.5 and about 150 hp....after the tune at like 7.15 psi Im 210 hp 235 tq to the wheels....and I can really feel the difference...I brought a boost controller but decided to leave it at stock wastegate pressure, lol he showed me dyno sheets of an s2000 w header intake exhaust etc...pushin 165hp and 114 tq to the wheels...that's just funny...I'm pretty even dyno charts with a wrx turbo non sti, anyhow....good work, very recommended, check them out for those who are interested

dang real good numbers with just 7 psi. lol its making me want to get a tune! I will sooner or later. Thats weird though, cause at 5 psi i can whoop lightly modded scions and base model RSX. I wish there were places in Tx that aren't far for me to go tune my car.

So why stop at 7 psi? Should of went for 9 psi or 10.
Upload the pics on photobucket.

I'm definately bringing my car there next month.

I don't know, but I already went through an engine, and I don't know how long this would last under 10 psi lol....
